Update: Well as you can see, my refusal to write is over, as blogger, after 12 days, has fixes their picture problem. ! Now to catch up.

Bloggers picture function has been broken for about 11 days now...at least for some of us. Not sure why it is selective. Anyway, they ( they being the blogger fix it folks) have progressed to the point that the icon to upload an image is back, BUT, the function still will not work.

So I refuse to post all the many things in my head until it is done. So I have type the titles to remind me...but will wait for the real deal...when the bloggerettes have finished their repairs.

Click and Read!!!

i heart esty

O God, I have tasted Your goodness,
and it has both satisfied me
and made me thirsty for more.
I am painfully conscious of my need of further grace.
I am ashamed of my lack of desire.
O God, the Triune God,
I want to want You;
I long to be filled with longing;
I thirst to be made more thirsty still.
Show me Your glory, I pray,
so I may know You indeed.
Begin in mercy a new work of love within me…
Give me grace to rise
and follow You up from this misty lowland
where I have wandered so long.
In Jesus’ name. Amen.

I Would Gather Children

Some would gather moneyAlong the path of lifeSome would gather roses,And rest from worldly strife.But I would gather childrenFrom among the thorns of sin,I would seek an ebony curl,And a wide and toothless grin.For money cannot enterIn that land of endless day,And roses that are gatheredSoon will wilt along the way.But oh, the laughing children,As I cross the sunset sea,And the gates swing wide to heaven,I can take them in with me!~Author Unknown~

If it ain't fresh...it ain't food!

God Loves Us...

“God wins us,not by shouting, beating us up, or starving us into submission,but by asking for an invitation to enter.

We are loved into surrender.The more we accept that he operates out of love for us, the more we will entrust ourselves to him.

Fénelon expresses this truth beautifully: "God is not a spy looking to surprise you. He is not an enemy lurking in the shadows to hurt you. God is your Father who loves you, and wants to help you if you will but trust in His goodness."
